Thread: Gear List

Just wondering what everyone takes on a week long fly in trip? We have a roar block in Haast. It will be our first week long hunt

I'm flying in for a week in the main divide this Sat. I'll chuck up a list of what I'm taking shortly.

Looks bloody good! Cheers for that. Are you going to take insect repellent?

Rape whistle.... What sort of trip you going on

Good list, cheers for putting it together

I wasn't planning on it. I figure because we are on the tops we might escape the bugs? Maybe not...
Probably should add sunblock to the list

I'd hazard a guess @Philipo is going too

There is one thing on the list I specifically went out and bought when I found out @Philipo was to be my buddy... I'll leave it to you to guess what that was.

tooo many things come to mind so i'll move along

Can you ditch the dog and take me instead
Impressive list
Copied and pasted for future reff

If you're a 28kg female and happy to share a tent with me then you're in @Sarvo

@Dorkus I would take more of those replace sachets mate they don't take up much room and they're bloody good I usually smash a 700ml three times a day when hunting the big stuff
